Sounds the goods Dave.😋 I’ll definitely give this a go - have some chunky blue eye fillet which would go well like that. 
Might also add a kaffir lime leaf from my tree 👍

Thanks for posting.

Not a problem Zoran. A kaffir leaf or 2 would be good, and chopped up blue eye would be good to go.

should not be a problem. Fish like whiting would probably be overpowered.

[Larkin]

Just noticed you posted this up - Going to try this!

I’ll give this a go Dave - might make salmon taste good

Might just work Bob. Salmon need some extras, in reality, lots of extras.  😂

Thanks Yowie, this recipe has been noted, will definitely be giving this a go.

As far as the Salmon go, ever since I was a nipper, I was introduce to Smoked Salmon..  Split the filets, a generous dose of lemon juice and anything else that takes your fancy, into the fridge for a good few hours, then sprinkle brown sugar over the meat, into the smoker it goes. I had a heap of friends that didn't know what they were eating that regarded Salmon as bait and dog food, it sure changed most of there minds. I only have a small mobile type meths burning smoker, I intend to build a decent one, but rocks in the  two meth bowls underneath, your favorite choice and flavor of the wood chips, normally as close to 30 minutes on the smoke,   B-e-u-a-t-i-f-u-l......   Maybe because I was bought up on it, but ever since when I've served it up, it was gone before it had a chance to cool down...
